It really isn't

How so? She gets to release that pent up energy and you get to not look like a tittyboy, while also not actually hurting this lady

This is incredibly misguided.

The evidence in this topic speaks for itself. Nothing misguided about it.

To 500!

For real. Imagine saying crazy shit and then getting mad at people for calling you out on it.

"Shill".

He acted in self defense. The 3 people he shot (none whom died by the way), all attacked him first in a way that would indicate to any reasonable person that they intended to use lethal force. He had a right to defend himself. None of them were good people either. They were shitty just like he was, just (maybe, we don't even know) on the opposite political side.

I'll admit I was as ignorant as you on this topic when the story first broke. I was all aboard the "Rittenhouse is guilty" train and remained that way for months. I said a lot of shit that I look back and cringe at. And it was easy to do because Rittenhouse is such a shithead and the people he befriended afterwards were even worse.

But I followed the trial closely, and it became clearer and clearer that I was wrong. He defended himself rightly, and I humbled myself. It's a shame so many others weren't able to do the same.

Lol.

He should have made a more aggressive effort to get away instead of just standing there and taking it, pushing her so he can get away is acceptable, but no

a man should never lay their hands upon a woman unless its ACTUAL life threatening self-defense. Which this clearly was not.

If he chose to do so, he would be justified in pressing charges.

Wat.

One thing Id ask this topic to consider is an individuals natural fight or flight response.

Meaning, that there are almost 100 people (going off the poll) who claim they would have knocked her out when in reality, had she instead been a 64 male built like an NFL Linebacker the natural instinct would have actually been to run away

What Im getting at here is that in most situations there are two options that exist:

* Stay and physically defend yourself
* Remove yourself from the situation and literally run away if necessary

If the reason why a male is choosing to stay and fight a female is because they feel that they can win the battlethen thats not okay.

If the option to retreat exists, then thats what they should do. For every person in this topic saying they would have laid hands on the girl in an act of self-defense, then in this situation replace the girl with Brock Lesnar, and then ask yourself if your actions would have been the same.

If you physically lay hands on the female when the avenue of retreat exists, then its not self defense its just retaliatory violence. Which is wrong.

That argument starts to lean into the whole equal rights & lefts nonsense that the online male bro culture just loves to parrot. The claim that she hit me first, therefore I should be allowed to hit her back is simply not valid unless its actual self-defense.

If it not actual self-defense, then its just revenge, and all revenge is motivated by anger and feelings of hate. These feelings can be justified, but they cannot be the foundation for ones justification as to why a man has chosen to lay their hands upon a woman.

Granted, legally the guy is justified. The court cant arbitrarily determine ones earnest feeling of their life being endangeredbut lets be realit wasnt.

Therefore, morally the dude would not be justified in (as the poll so eloquently puts it) knocking her out

Citation needed.

Its how society has conditioned us. Guys (for obvious reasons) shouldnt hit women

In anger. That never applied to self defense.

For the live of god, please don't let the topic about finding reasons to punch a woman in the mouth get to 500.

This place is bad, but I didnt think it was THAT bad.

At this point, the sooner this dumpster fire of misogyny and armchair experts hits 500 and goes away, the better. Were nearly there!

Good thing that isn't what anyone in the topic is specifically advocating for. Gender does not matter.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Knows not to even attempt to find an example of the stuff hes lying about

Takes a direct insult as.....evidence of something completely different

And then ends with the self lol, awesome

Don't forget part 2 that will show up.

It's nice to finally see the shit posters get called out on their shit posting.

Gender plays no role in self defense. If anyone puts their hands on you, you have a right to defend yourself. Period. Educate yourselves.

Although some states use a blend of doctrines, self-defense laws generally fall into the following three categories:

1. Stand Your Ground: No duty to retreat from the situation before resorting to deadly force; not limited to your home, place of work, etc.
2. Castle Doctrine: No duty to retreat before using deadly force if you are in your home or yard (some states include a place of work and occupied vehicles)
3. Duty to Retreat: Duty to retreat from a threatening situation if you can do so with complete safety

35 states are Stand your Ground, while only 15 still have duty to retreat laws on the books.

none of whom died? 2 of them absolutely died. if you don't even know the very public and obvious facts of the case why are you talking about it? you absolutely didn't watch a single second of the trial if you don't know that two of the people he shot died.

This is correct. Two of them died. In my head what I meant to say was "none of whom were black" because people frequently try to frame the shootings as racially motivated and I've encountered many who assumed the victims were black, but for some reason I typed "none of whom died". I don't know why I typed that.

Yes, I did follow the trial closely. Nearly 2 years ago, when it happened, I probably could've run through every detail of the case with anyone.

Bro bro, no no.

You are the last person on earth to talk self awareness. Stick to getting mad about buttrock.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Yeah? Where is this topic I got made fun of in? And you think I should be upset about this imaginary thread? What did I get made fun of for? Cuz that's news to me. I just remember you blasting out essay after essay and crying mental illness in response to people laughing at your buttrock.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


The one where I got made fun of didnt happen.

The one where you got made fun of and got mad did happen.

Literal compulsive lying on display.

As someone who didn't read it, one can only wonder the twists and turns this topic took

To be fair...there have been a lot of posts simply about the desire to hit a woman if she hits you first. Like they are hoping for it. Not the whole thread but enough to turn the stomach of any decent person.

Yeah, that didnt happen, especially the ignoring part. No reason to lie there, but you still chose to, and I'm so very surprised.

Yeah, I mean, I'd say most of the posts are honest discussion, but theres some nasty stuff here, and theres absolutely no reason that poll should still be up. That top result just looms over any kind of genuine conversation.

Lol yeah, that explanation doesnt pass the sniff test in context of the rest of the paragraph, while the original wording does.

Who?

Because not discriminating against who strikes you first =/= this tragic misogynistic tale that white knights are claiming of people foaming at the mouth to just hit a woman.

I see most if not all saying it doesn't matter if it's a woman or a man.

They take that not discriminating part as people desperately wanting to hit women.

Post to hit 500 sooner.
